FORT WORTH - A Federal Aviation Administration spokesman says a search is expected to resume Tuesday in West Virginia for a small plane that may have gone missing during a flight from Texas to Virginia.

FAA spokesman Lynn Lunsford in Fort Worth said Kwan Kwok, of Virginia, was reported missing by his sister. Lunsford said the woman said Kwok recently bought a twin engine Piper Comanche in Dalhart, Texas to fly back to his home state.

Lunsford said he doesn't know when Kwok was to have departed. He didn't file a flight plan.

Lunsford said investigators think the aircraft could be in West Virginia, though no crash has been reported.

Lunsford said a search was postponed Monday because of weather and is to resume Tuesday. He didn't have details on an exact location.
